I hope you read this with an open mind !
I have idealized Hasler all his playing and coaching life until the end of 2014,
Yes it took me three years of him being at Canterbury to realize what a fraud at Canterbury he was !!!
Don't ever be mistaken...Greenturd signed Hasler in full and total control of football then left us !!!
When Castle took over as the CEO it was a case of Hasler would tell her to jump and she would say...How high !!!
He was fully responsible for the roster...
Pushed out Good loyal players and support team and signed overrated overpaid ones...WHY ?
Yes he got us to the finals 5 times in 6 years, making 2 Grand finals
Why wouldn't he...The board of our rich club were bending backwards for success and he took advantage !!!
2012 He changed his successful tactics in the finals, then lost the Grand final as a result !
I hate to say it, I predicted that result and M.O.M. because of the changes !
2013 we suffered many injuries, but he reverted back to his already exposed tactics and somehow we made the finals under the radar !
2014 The exposed and now very boring tactics kept us in the top 8, UNDER THE RADAR we managed to bash our way to the grand final, Lost again, I know losing our halves and hooker to injuries and suspension didn't help but SHE-REX didn't help either !
2015 The boring tactics continues, I remember in the early season in the game versus the Rorters I sent this text message to a person in management...What has become of our Bulldogs, We are not the ENTERTAINERS, Nor we are the DOGS OF WAR we don't even have the HASLER MANLY STYLE ???
2 years later I got the answer
I learnt that the previous board had negotiated for 18 months to brake Hasler's control then sacked his cronies and Hasler promised to change the teams tactics but never did,
The board never learnt from what Hasler did to his beloved Manly when they sacked Peter Peters, and for that alone they deserved to get the chop !!!
MOST IMPORTANTLY, 3 times the playing group were approached by the management about Hasler's credibility and every time they shouldered the blame...
Do you still wonder why we have or had so many overpaid player ???
